certain parts of this book were really good but other parts were just really boring.

apparently the last chapter of this book was removed via suggestion of joan lindsay's editor, and having read it i can say that she was right for removing it. honestly it was so bad i dropped this review from a 3.5 to a 3

couldn't engage with it. characters were vivid and the mystery is intriguing, all well-written, but I couldn't find myself to care
